Objective To investigate the teaching effectiveness of preventive medicine and ask the students for feedback on the curriculum in order to reform the teaching methods.Methods Questionnaire survey.Sampling survey.Results 89.2% of students have realized the importance of preventive medicine.Respectively 16.4% and 7.5% of students have no interesting on the curriculum due to teachers'matter and students' idea that the course is uselessness for their major and future career.75.1% of students are interest in Nutrition and Food Hygiene,35.2% of students dislike Medical Statistics,and 45.3% of students think the most tough part is Medical Statistics.78.9% of students wish to have more practice lessons.30.5% of students do not ask teachers questions because of no communication with teachers after class.Conclusions Preventive Medicine is still ignored by a few students.The more tough the content is,the less interest the students have. Repeatedly emphasizing the importance of Preventive Medicine in medical education,adopting and combining with the community practical cases in class lectures and frequently communicating between teachers and students after class are suggested.
3.Brain natriuretic peptide: a potential indicator of cardiomyogenesis after autologous mesenchymal stem cell transplantation?
Journal of Zhejiang University. Science. B 2006;7(9):766-768
We observed in a pilot study that there was a transient elevation of brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) level shortly after the transplantation in the patient with ischemic heart failure, which is unexplainable by the simultaneous increase of the cardiac output and six-minute walk distance. Similar findings were observed in the phase I trial. We postulated on the basis of the finding of Fukuda in vitro that this transient elevation of BNP level against the improvement of cardiac function and exercise capacity might indicate cardiomyogenesis in patients after mesenchymal stem cell transplantation. Further study is warranted to verify the hypothesis.

OBJECTIVE:To observe clinical efficacy and safety of intrathecal injection of meropenem combined with vanco-mycin for intracranial infections after craniotomy. METHODS:In retrospective analysis,46 patients with intracranial infections af-ter craniotomy selected from our hospital during May 2014 to Jun. 2016 were divided into control group(20 cases)and observation group(26 cases)according to treatment method. Control group was given Vancomycin hydrochloride for injection 1.0 g,ivgtt,bid+Meropenem for injection 2.0 g,ivgtt,tid. After cerebrospinal fluid release of lumbar cistern drainage,observation group was given Vancomycin hydrochloride for injection 20 mg slowly,and the given Meropenem for injection 20 mg,bid,after washing tube with 0.9% Sodium chloride injection 2 mL. Both groups received treatment for 2 weeks. Cerebrospinal fluid bacterial culture,clinical ef-ficacy,healing time and treatment cost were observed in 2 groups,and the occurrence of ADR and sequela in 6 months after treat-ment were recorded. RESULTS:The positive rate of cerebrospinal fluid bacterial culture of 46 patients was 45.7%. The healing rate of observation group(92.3%)was significantly higher than that of control group(65.0%). Healing time and treatment cost of ob-servation group were significantly shorter or lower than control group;and total incidence of ADR (7.7%) was also significantly lower than control group (40.0%),the incidence of sequelae (3.8%) was significantly lower than control group (20.0%),with statistical significance(P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Therapeutic efficacy of intrathecal injection of meropenem combined with van-comycin is superior than intravenous administration for intracranial infections after craniotomy,can significantly shorten the treat-ment time and reduce treatment cost with good safety.
10.Effect of platelet-rich plasma on cellular proliferation and intracytoplasm calcium ion concentration of osteoblasts and tenocytes during the process of tendon-bone healing
Chinese Journal of Orthopaedic Trauma 2012;14(4):331-335
Objectlve To explore the effect of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on cellular proliferation and intracytoplasm calcium ion concentration of osteoblasts and tenocytes during the process of tendon-bone healing. Methods We established a kind of indirect co-culture system using transwell chambers to co-culture osteoblasts and tenocytes.The cellular proliferation was carried out in following manners:single culture of osteoblasts versus single culture of osteoblasts plus PRP and co-culture of osteoblasts versus co-culture of osteoblasts plus PRP; single culture of tenocytes versus single culture of tenocytes plus PRP and co-culture of tenocytes versus co-culture of tenocytes plus PRP.The cellular proliferation rates were measured by CCK-8 test.The intracytoplasm calcium ion concentration of was measured by laser confocal microscopy and fluo-3/AM. Results The proliferation rates and fluorescence intensities in the co-culture groups without PRP were significantly lower than other groups ( P < 0.05).The proliferation rates and fluorescence intensities in the single culture groups without PRP were significantly higher than in the co-culture groups without PRP but significantly lower than in the groups with PRP ( P < 0.05).The proliferation rates and fluorescence intensities in the groups with PRP were significantly higher than other groups ( P < 0.05) but there was no significant difference between groups of the same cells ( P > 0.05).The intracytoplasm calcium ion concentrations were proportional to the proliferation rates. Conclusions During the process of tendon-bone healing,PRP has a potential not only to wipe off the depression effect of osteoblasts and tenocytes co-cultured indirectly but also to enhance the cellular proliferation rate to a higher level.At the same time the calcium ion concentrations will be elevated.
